The invisible man's self-confinement in a basement clearly recalls Harriet Jacob's self-confinement in the attic space in Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl (1865).
A retrospective analysis using a physical-psychological-social inventory of 10 variables evaluated the number of individuals that during confinement and self-confinement (March 11 - June 29, 2020) canceled (mostly M-) and/or requested a therapeutic intervention, the reasons for their request, and the strategies they used to self-manage the situation.

Intensity in the white collar world is the result of limited self-design, high prescription and self-confinement: it appears through permanent knowledge shortage, short-term solutions and relational instability.
Zhang Xinxin makes it clear to the readers that the liberation of the self under socialism can easily become another form of self-confinement if it demands or results in the negation of the self, especially the female self, or denies the individual of his or her distinct identity.
In addition, that blocked life energy, recoiled and trapped within the selfish ego, produces negative feelings such as tension, fear, anger, self-confinement, and various other forms of inner and outer negativity.
In fact, there is only one form of confinement for which the Gothic offers little hope for escape: the self-confinement that results from internalization of social regulation, like that posited by Foucault.

The higher the injected carrier density, the stronger the self-confinement effect of carriers Silver et al. have predicted that lasing could occur even in type II structures; this has been shown experimentally at low temperature in InAsSb/lnAs multiple quantum well laser structure emitting in the midwavelength infrared region.
In particular, these considerations apply to a class of nonlinear effects which includes self-phase modulation (2), envelope soliton propagation (3), longitudinal self-confinement (4), degene rate four-wave mixing (5)(6) and nonlinear modal noise (7); all of these are third-order self-induced effects, that is the nonlinear polarizability with which they are connected is cubic in the propagating field and vibrates at (approximately) its frequency.
The backbone of the DSA is a self-confinement of accelerated particles by scattering off various magnetic perturbations that particles drive by themselves while streaming ahead of the shock.
Self-confinement and electrode engineering can then reduce the expected programming current increase.
